I think it unwise for me to run this new pub... You need someone uncontroversial, acceptable to all Tarboarders. I nominate Ed - who could be more popular, presiding over us with a beaming smile?

Sorry Peter, but I don't agree. IMHO you would make a great landlord. One of my favourite pubs has a great landlord, Tuesday to Sunday he is a perfect host, chatting and beaming to his customers. Monday evening is a music evening, 6 violins, a set of bagpipes or two, the odd harp, you know the sort of thing. There is no electronic amplification. If you dare to chat too loudly during the music he swears at you. If you dare to chat during the (often unaccompanied) singing you go flying through the door! Needless to say you can't get into his pub on Mondays it is so crowded. A good pub, like TarBoard needs strong characters. Let's keep TarBoard the way it is and not convert it to a 'happy diner'. And Ed? If I ever decide to join a monastery then Ed gets my vote to run the place!
